Estimates, not measurements: the WLTP figure scaled by the same temperature and road factors for every car (for example 65% for cold motorway driving, 115% for mild city driving). Your range depends on speed, wheels, load and heating. For a planned stop, use the charging simulator.

Frequently Asked Questions

DS Automobiles DS 3 E-Tense Range & Charging FAQ

What is the real-world highway and winter range of the DS Automobiles DS 3 E-Tense?

The official combined WLTP range for the DS Automobiles DS 3 E-Tense is 300 km (186 miles).

In cold winter conditions (-5°C / 23°F) at highway cruising speeds (120-130 km/h), expect a realistic highway range of approximately 216 km (134 miles) due to cold battery chemistry, cabin heating, and higher aerodynamic drag.

How long does it take to charge the DS Automobiles DS 3 E-Tense at home?

Charging the 50.8 kWh battery from 0% to 100% takes approximately 4.2 hours using a standard 11 kW 3-phase AC wallbox. On a single-phase 7.4 kW home charger, a full charge takes around 6.2 hours (typically overnight).

How fast is DC fast charging (10% to 80%)?

The DS Automobiles DS 3 E-Tense supports peak DC fast charging rates of up to 107 kW. Recharging from 10% to 80% State of Charge (SoC) requires approximately 28 minutes at a compatible ultra-rapid charging station.

How much does it cost to charge the DS Automobiles DS 3 E-Tense?

At an average European residential electricity tariff of €0.24/kWh, a complete 0-100% home charge costs approximately €12.19. At high-power public DC charging networks (~€0.65/kWh), a full recharge costs approximately €33.02.
